If potatoes germinate only a little, they are edible in theory, but we need to clean up the sprouting place and peel it off.

It's simple to say, but it's not that easy to do. If it is not handled properly, some toxins will remain.

For those potatoes with longer buds, it doesn't mean that they can't be eaten, because solanine in potatoes is soluble in water. We cut potatoes into pieces or shred them and soak them in cold water for more than half an hour, then rinse them with clear water.

Moreover, when frying potatoes, potatoes must be cooked, so that toxins can be effectively dissolved, because Solanum nigrum is most afraid of acidic substances or high temperature and heat. When frying potatoes, you can add less vinegar to play a double protection role.
